About World Fantasy Convention

The  World Fantasy Convention is an annual gathering of professionals, collectors  and others interested in the field of light and dark fantasy art and  literature. The number of attending memberships are limited, and usually  sell out in advance of the start of the convention. The World Fantasy  Awards are presented during a Sunday afternoon banquet.

Columbus is noted for O. Henry and James Thurber, brooding gargoyles, “unicorns in gardens”, and is home to a global community of authors, editors, publishers, artists, agents, and others who share a serious interest in fantastic literature and art.

The convention’s theme will be focused on the whimsical side of fantasy.
